This is your first meeting with your OLS mentor. This call should include you and your mentor. If you are working on a team of up to (and no more than) 3 registered participants, you can all meet together with your mentor.
These 30-minute meetings will happen every other week during OLS. The default time is during your cohort call time. Your mentor will reach out to you this week to confirm when and where you’ll be meeting.
In your first meeting with your mentor, introduce yourselves and then:
Document your goals in your shared notes; you will return to these goals frequently to assess your progress towards meeting them.
Complete your own copy of the open leadership self-assessment and share it with your mentor
If you’re a group, each teammate should complete this assessment individually. This is here to help you set your own personal goals during the program. No need to share your results, but be ready to share your thoughts with your mentor.
